Case Study: Catalyst Paper achieves better efficiency and product quality with dataPARC

Catalyst Paper reduces coating costs by 17% with dataPARC

Catalyst Paper, a major paper producer, faced significant challenges with its data systems at its Rumford Division. The mill used multiple data platforms but struggled with data silos, an inability to connect to various sources easily, and a lack of intuitive tools for analysis and correlation. These limitations hindered their efforts to improve operations and product quality.

To address this, Catalyst Paper implemented dataPARC's PARCview solution. This platform integrated data from their various systems, which allowed them to centerline processes and establish "golden runs." The results included a 17% reduction in coating costs, simplified process monitoring, and improved product consistency across shifts. dataPARC's tools enabled operators to make real-time decisions and forecast future events.
